PROCEDURE

Chop raisins and combine with sweetened condensed milk and lemon rind in saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly just until mixture begins to bubble. Remove from heat; cool slightly. In large bowl, cream together butter, sugar and vanilla. Sift together flour, salt and soda; mix in oats and wheat germ. Add to butter mixture and blend until crumbly and evenly mixed. Pack half of the mixture into a greased 13×9-inch pan. Cover with raisin filling. Sprinkle with remaining crumbly mixture. Pat lightly. Bake at 375°F for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool. Cut into 1×2-inch bars.
